  I wondered what you wrote, unfortunately it seems like it was on a different account as there is zero things in the (hexbear) modlog for this username.

  This is the problem with hexbear: they lure you in with things like gaming and then you start agreeing with them that none should go hungry or homeless and once you realize it, you’ve become a trans redfash tankie gobbunist (/s)

  Has it not? Has it not caused the death of 1 million people in Indonesia? Has it not caused 7 million excess deaths due to “shock-therapy” in Russia alone? Has it not caused the brutality, violence and oppression of the “dictatorships” that the CIA installed in Latin America? Has it not caused countless Famines? Has it not caused the economic ruin of Africa and Latin America?

  What happens if you turn this around?

  The precise terminology of the US’s political system is unimportant. What is important is that wherever the recipes of [Liberalism] have been tried, the result has been violence, brutality, oppression, famine, economic ruin.

  This is all true of course. So what then? Do you also reject Liberalism?

  There were two “Reigns of Terror,” if we would but remember it and consider it; the one wrought murder in hot passion, the other in heartless cold blood; the one lasted mere months, the other had lasted a thousand years; the one inflicted death upon ten thousand persons, the other upon a hundred millions; but our shudders are all for the “horrors” of the minor Terror, the momentary Terror, so to speak; whereas, what is the horror of swift death by the axe, compared with lifelong death from hunger, cold, insult, cruelty, and heart-break? What is swift death by lightning compared with death by slow fire at the stake? A city cemetery could contain the coffins filled by that brief Terror which we have all been so diligently taught to shiver at and mourn over; but all France could hardly contain the coffins filled by that older and real Terror — that unspeakably bitter and awful Terror which none of us has been taught to see in its vastness or pity as it deserves.

  Yes. .ml isn’t an ML instance so far as I understand, the devs and admins are MLs, so its generally leftists, but not specifically ML, that’s 'grad.

  I couldn’t let it go.

  Nutomic: I always thought that .ml was used simply because its free. But what do I know…

  This is why we post pictures of a pig shitting on its balls rather than attempt to engage people like you. Shut the fuck up dumbass.

  Hexbear isn’t actually very large. Just very active.

  Correct. And inshallah, the US will sanction itself into isolation.
